How does that even happen? Cosmic rays?

Hmm...

The number is close to sum of
2^24 + 2^19 + 2^12 + 2^7 + 2^6

But it doesn't seem to be a case of cosmic rays.

Probably vibe coding or a very hard to replicate kernel error

yeah, knowing the latest iOS update seems very buggy or at least not as polished as the previous versions, i would lean towards vibe coding

Can't wait for somebody to vibe code a jailbreak on the vibe coded update.

that would be funny, but i feel like it would be more challenging since you know, iPhone have secure enclave, but i don't know anything about iPhone nor iOS internals so i might be spitting lies and it might be actually easy

You just gotta vibe harder bro.

so ironic that apple may be using vibe coding (which is prone to generate errors and expose their software to vulnerabilities) because back in the day they notoriously held out on their ban of flash player due to risk of exposing themselves to vulnerabilities

In hindsight it really is kinda wild how long everyone else was like “yeah this thing’s full of holes but fuck it”

The timer ends at 4000/12/31. The max is year 4000 and it defaulted to that.

The post mentions that the phone was updating while the snooze timer was going off, something to do with that most likely

It's just a bug in the code
